1. 1 Site visit to an Indian CC Road Paving 4 lane Nagaon Bypass project.Notes relevant to concrete issues observed by Scott Mallory 27/12/09 – 12/1/09, Nagaon, Assam, India The contents of the following report are derived from observations related to the concrete delivered to the S850 paver w/CDBI and the resulting issues.
Upon my return home I was fortunate enough to meet with Mr. Paul Okamoto from CTL group and share the concrete issues and observations that had experienced during my site visit.
I must say the crew was very hard working, pleasant and doing a great job. The work that was being done appears as some of the best I have seen in India during my limited travels there. I was treated very well and was made very comfortable amongst the crew.
I do however want to emphasize that my experience tells me that the quality of the concrete is going to prohibit this highway from performing as well and a long as the final product looks to the eye. This is a shame given the expense, hard work and effort put into the project by all.
Please review this document and feel free to comment.
